BATMAN: THE LONG HALLOWEEN (2021) Reaction! | Part 1

[@iReiGNxx]

The actor for Alfred is the same one from a tv series called The Batman (2004) and it was pretty great hearing his voice again after so many years. That show is fantastic by the way, though it is more action focused than the ‘90s series.

[@ripleydude3672]

I KNEW I RECOGNIZED HIS VOICE! I absolutely loved that show growing up!

[@marcsteiger7806]

Jensen Ackles really does Batman well. I was surprised how good he sounded. Also the voice of Calendar Man plays as Polka Dot Man in The Suicide Squad.

[@keny1555]

Meg: "all the different versions are getting mixed in my mind" Older (relatively speaking) comic fans: welcome to comic fandoms! where the backstories change and the rules don't matter!!

[@lithiumgreen105]

Batman: The Long Halloween is easily my favorite Batman story of all time. It has it all: great artwork, fantastic character developments, and a riveting storyline that keeps you engaged from start to finish. While the animated film certainly honors many of the key plot points, it just never quite reaches the same level as the graphic novel. Still, this is a good adaptation that is worthy of watching. Great reaction!

[@andre1999o]

Awesome! I really liked this one. If you're interested, I would recommend reading "Batman: Dark Victory". It's a sequel to The Long Halloween by the same team (Loeb and Sale) and chronicles the rest of Batman's fight against the mafia, as well as retell the origins of Dick "Robin" Grayson.

[@bampowbang6898]

Loved your reaction Meg! I definitely recommend you watch Batman: Under the Rood Hood and the Dark Knight Returns.

[@tokuprime8012]

Fun fact this movie is apart of a animated connected universe

[@Vashjaeger]

I would recommend the comic 'Harleen'. It's an orgin story of Harley Quinn and other characters that is done amazingly well. Also 'Dark Victory' and 'Catwoman: When in Rome' are sequels to 'The Long Halloween'.

[@chand911]

This is a rare case where they made the movie better than the book. This version makes more sense than just lonely house wife.

[@Ammeeeeeeer]

Alfred: Happy Halloween, Bruce! Bruce: DAAAARKNESSS!!! NO PARENTS!!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@milkiassamuel780]

The Long Halloween was the first Batman comic I ever bought as a kid, and might be my favourite Batman story (probably basedon guilty bias). I love the detective noir story, the eery atmosphere and the incredible art by the sadly recently passed away Tim Sale (RIP). I also really liked this adaptation of the story and I am really glad your checking it out. BTW Meg I was just wondering if you were by ant chance planning to continue with your reactions for Superman: The Animated Series, because I genuinely really liked those videos as the show is incredibly underrated and really portrays one of the best interpretations of Superman and his world.

[@masterpunk7205]

Jensen Ackles is a good batman voice actor. I always remembered him as Dean Winchester in Supernatural. One day I'll name my son after him.

[@masterpunk7205]

@@Xehanort10 yeah I know bud. He's in Dawson's Creek, Walker, Days of our lives, and Big Sky.

[@Elfenlied8675309]

Pretty sure the writer of Long Halloween has gone on record and said that the killer was Harvey Dent AND Gilda together doing different murders. Gilda took over for Harvey as Holliday at a specific point in the story.

[@shaderax_storm6165]

It blows my mind that of all the Batman stories they could have adapted to live action, this one is not yet a thing! It expands the batman villain gallery and has a plot that makes PERFECT sense at the end. Oh I would recommend Batman Vs the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, I never knew I needed to see Shredder fight Batman!

[@Knightcowboy89]

Did you hear that Kevin Conroy passed away? He was the voice of Batman in the animated series and the Arkham games. Also the Killing Joke, Batman Sub-Zero, Mask of The Phantasm, and many other animated properties. He was THE definitive voice of Batman. I think a reaction to one of his performances with a dedication to him would be nice. Just a thought. The Long Halloween is a great movie and I enjoyed your reaction too😁

[@deadhead8323]

She's been watching the shows and film and playing the games. I believe she made a short video dedication for Kevin as well.

[@Knightcowboy89]

@@deadhead8323 ah okay. I haven't seen it on her YT so I didn't know.

[@jaymorrison4886]

I would reco under the red hood and mask of the phantasm and the damian films and batman beyond

[@ToonRaider]

This film is part of the Tomorrowverse, a series of movies set in 1 universe. It started with Superman: Man of Tomorrow, then JSA: World War II, then Long Halloween Parts 1 and 2. So I'll just say upfront, something in the 2nd one won't really hit you the same way but that's ok. I'm sure you'll get around to the first 2 another time.

[@nellucthegreat]

What's the thing that relates to the previous 2?

[@ericjohnson6120]

I always thought that Holiday was three people in the comic: Alberto Falcone, Harvey Dent, and Gilda Dent. I love that in murder mysteries, almost no one thinks of multiple killers.

[@thatrandomgamer6278]

As some other people have mentioned, you should absolutely watch Batman: Under the Red Hood.

[@mrrocauncensored869]

Mask of the phantasm! Do it! :)

[@Treblemaker1279]

I hope you haven't given up on the Superman animated series. Especially since a few of the plot points make their way into Justice League animated.

[@paulchavez3039]

Omg ur gonna be SO so ready for the dark knight movies cuz ur gonna get all the references that many of us only got when we went back and watched the animated movies and comics after getting obsessed with Bats ❤🎉

[@Val1Zod]

You should’ve started with Man Of Tomorrow since they are connected and in the same universe

[@YRH92]

I think Acklrd had a lot of promise as Batman and should be in the running to be a love action Batman. Baker would be my second favorite Joker voice after Hamill. He is very versatile and takes a lot of cues from Hamill’s version. And the movie was pretty faithful to the comic. But the comic was different in that Alberto Falcone didn’t die like that and he was guilty of most of the murders. Harvey’s wife started it in the comics but Alberto and Sofia continued it. And I don’t know why they would change it in the movie, but like I had said already, it was mostly faithful to the story.

[@VforVictory00]

The thing about any DC animated movie is that they tend to change up the plot so that it's not completely the same and it's not predictable

[@christaylor7916]

Thanks for the reactions 😊

[@3cho_dimension285]

Came upon your channel by accident... keep up the good work

[@taterthot6921]

Really hope you watch batman the dark knight returns 1 and 2

[@adios4748]

Trailer to this movie is so damn climatic I love it

[@californianasianpersuasion3777]

Pls watch Batman Hush if you want more Bat and Cat

[@demonisaac5872]

[@3cho_dimension285]

Josh Duhamel is a really good voice actor....he does great in The Night of the Animated Living Dead as well

[@dalemcgathy4996]

This guy is almost a pure clone of mark Hamills joker

[@salvus608]

If you like Solomon Grundy you need to see him in a couple of episodes of the Justice League animated series. It's super memorable. If you ever feel like it, start that series. It's super cool.

[@MichaelLee-tt7gm]

Looking forward to your reaction to "Gotham by Gaslight", if it's on your list.

[@ch33les99]

Check out the Dark Knight Returns animated movie when you get the chance.

[@actuallyitsjustbo]

Naya Rivera from Glee did Catwoman here. I think she did a good job.

[@actuallyitsjustbo]

@@Xehanort10 I didn't know that. ☹️

[@actuallyitsjustbo]

@@Xehanort10 Well I knew she died I just didn't know it was before this released. Sorry. Should have been specific. But yeah it's horrible.

[@passionsquietrage]

Troy Baker does a damn good Batman too. Check out the TellTale Batman game to exoerience it.

[@jessiegreen619]

You should see inder the red hood all batman That jensen Ackles was a voices

[@KSSKAYDEE]

Driving 1940's cars am i the only one notice that, and tommy guns

[@exysa2798]

Cyberpunk Edgerunners Ending Theme Music Video Reaction when?

[@masterpunk7205]

Hello Meg. Since you're a new DC fan, why don't you start watching the Arrowverse on your reaction channel. Here's a list. Arrow The Flash Supergirl Legends of tomorrow Batwoman

[@kian.majid_danaeifar]

your next batman animated movie MUST be batman the dark knight returns. you MUST read the comic first & then you MUST react to the 2 part animated movie. it is easily one of the best top 3 batman animated movies EVER.

[@scilvortenebrae]

I believe in Jensen Ackles

[@outcastbeta]

I would rather be arrested by superman because batman will beat your ass first

[@kellyc4332]

[@jamesoblivion]

I really dislike how Gilda is portrayed in this adaptation. Not true to the character from the book at all. This is a hit or miss adaptation, for me. Lately, it's like they just can't stop themselves from impacting the material for the worse. You should watch Justice League: The New Frontier. The source material was pretty long, and they had to cut a LOT out, but in spite of that, they made a beautiful adaptation. It helped, I'm sure, that the late, great Darwyn Cook, writer of the original comic, adapted the story for the screen himself.

[@JBWinter]

Anything with Darwyn's name on is worth it. He wasn't juy incredibly talented but also just a really good guy.

[@JoeKerr019]

Sadly enough. The comic book is WAY better

[@jadennova]

I don't like how they changed Catwoman & the movie looks like a Newgrounds flash animation.
